This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACE32X10S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACE32X10S in place of this model. The ACE replacement is a current-production ISO 21287 compact cylinder in the same bore, stroke and force class, with a matching short body and the same mounting-accessory family, so it fits the same envelope. Confirm mounting-interface dimensions against the ACE datasheet before ordering.
Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP32X10S
The AirTAC Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP32X10S is a double acting DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 10mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACE32X10S (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP32X10S
A DIN-standard compact cylinder with a hard-anodized aluminium body and S45C hard-chrome rod, the ACP32X10S is double acting: air both extends and retracts the 12 mm rod. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 402.1 N and pulls 345.6 N, rising to 563 N at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical peak of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The short ISO 21287-class body saves roughly 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight jigs and guarded stations where a full-length body will not fit.
This S-coded unit carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches can be clipped on for end-of-stroke sensing on the 10 mm stroke. Plan for about 241 N of real work at 0.5 MPa (roughly 60% of the push rating), which lifts about 12 kg vertically even after halving for a 2:1 margin. Note the fixed TPU bumper at each end only softens end-of-travel; it never holds a load. ACP32X10S is discontinued: the current-production drop-in is ACE32X10, and buyers should confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACE32X10S (ISO 21287) carries the same bore/stroke/force class; confirm mounting-interface dimensions against the ACE datasheet before installation. Rod type: female thread (blank) or male thread (B). Thread options: PT (blank) / G.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø32mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 402 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | 484 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 kgf | |
The ACE32X10S produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

Where the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP32X10S Is Used
Fixture clamping on CNC pallets
A short 10 mm stroke with 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa clamps workpieces in a machining pallet, and the compact body fits inside the fixture plate where a longer cylinder cannot.
Reject gate on a packaging line
The fitted -S magnet feeds CMSE or DMSE switch signals to the PLC for kick-out confirmation, while the 32 mm bore gives enough thrust to deflect lightweight cartons at speed.
Bench-top press for small electronics
About 12 kg of vertical lift capacity after a 2:1 margin suits pressing connectors or crimping terminals on an assembly bench, with the 30-500 mm/s speed range matching cycle rates.
Replacing the Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP32X10S with the ACE32X10S
For a 10 mm stroke in this force class, the 32 mm bore is the middle choice: a 25 mm bore delivers 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa, while a 40 mm bore raises it to 628.3 N. If the load must stay put when air is lost, add a rod lock or pilot check valve, since a plain cylinder drifts. The female M8x1.25 rod thread and 1/8" PT ports suit standard fixtures, and FA/FB flange, LB foot or CA/CB clevis mounts bolt to the same face. Need position feedback? This model already includes the -S magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches. Order ACE32X10 as the current replacement and verify ISO 21287 dimensions.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACE32X10S
- ✓ Same bore / stroke / force class
- ✓ Confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Add -S for magnet if you need sensors
Airtac ACP Compact Cylinder ACP32X10S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 402.1 N and pulls 345.6 N; at 0.7 MPa, 563 N push and 483.8 N pull; theoretical maximum is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It is double acting with a 32 mm bore, 10 mm stroke, 12 mm rod, 1/8" PT ports, M8x1.25 female rod thread, 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) operating range, 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, -20 to +70 C temperature, 30-500 mm/s speed and fixed TPU bumpers at both ends.
Order ACE32X10, the current-production ISO 21287 successor: swap the P for an E and you keep the same 32 mm bore, 10 mm stroke and force class. Because the ACP was DIN-standard, confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions and port positions against your fixture before the swap. The ACE keeps the same mounting family, including FA/FB flange, LB foot and CA/CB clevis options.
